About EG Justice:

EG Justice is an international nonprofit organization that promotes human rights, transparency, and the rule of law to build a just Equatorial Guinea. Working with the people and advocates, we document violations, use legal and non-legal mechanisms to seek redress for those violations and connect local actors to resources to bring about substantive reform in the country. We see a future where every person has access to food, shelter, health care, education, and a safe and sustainable livelihood. We hope to help build a country where human rights are protected, resources and power are shared equitably, and citizens can freely elect their leaders and hold them accountable.
